Building A Protogen From Scratch [#1]

How to build the frame for a protogen fursuit head, in this episode of fursuit from scratch we start building a new project. I've been wanting to make a protogen for a while and we need to start out by making the frame for the head. With this we can attach the fur, electronics and visor.

    To assemble the parts together you could also have heated the rivets with a soldering iron so, that they melt into the plastic of the base. You would then have added glue to the other pieces. It would have avoided weakening the part by drilling inside.

    I tried this approach after having issues with drilling and getting the holes to line up. Heating the rivets with a soldering iron didn't really have an affect. Direct contact with the soldering iron would melt the plastic, but that would just widen the hole rather than fuse the rivet to the plastic.

    @Firefox4hire overall it is good, however I am not a fan of just how heavy this specific head is, I would recommend one of the heads instead from coela can't. The epsilon one is actually one I'm looking at rebuilding in atm.

    5:10 maybe razor blades? They cut through plastic like a charm and speed things up. Just be careful, you might remove a bit too much plastic, or a chunk of your hand.

    Quite ironically i dont think proto suits look all that hard to make, cause with regular ones you need to learn how to cut foam for the foundation. But with a protogen fursuit the foundation is 3d printed and the furring and adding of foam will be the easy ish part. Idk if im wrong here cause i have no experience but feel free to prove me wrong
